    As Salamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,

    Dear Teacher,

    You have the document in your hand, now what? You are in a unique position to

    influence the lives of Muslim children for many years to come. When you view

    the curriculum framework please keep one thing in mind: This document is forThis document is forThis document is forThis document is for

    youyouyouyou. It is to help guide your lesson plans and ensure that the children you teach

    leave your classroom with a solid, authentic understanding of Islam. Please keep inPlease keep inPlease keep inPlease keep in

    mind, at the kindergarten level you will not say such words as Ruboobiyah andmind, at the kindergarten level you will not say such words as Ruboobiyah andmind, at the kindergarten level you will not say such words as Ruboobiyah andmind, at the kindergarten level you will not say such words as Ruboobiyah and

    Uloohiyyah as these are words that are far beyond the capacity of a four or fiveUloohiyyah as these are words that are far beyond the capacity of a four or fiveUloohiyyah as these are words that are far beyond the capacity of a four or fiveUloohiyyah as these are words that are far beyond the capacity of a four or five

    year oldyear oldyear oldyear old. What you will be able to do inshaAllah is teach the basic concept. Thismeans that children at this age can understand that Allah is One, that He subhana

    wa ta ala Created everything, that no one shares in His Power, etc. So you will

    teach inshaAllah the basic concept, not an in depth study of these concepts.

    Again, this is beyond their capacity. A child at this age can understand that Allah

    Created us to worship Him. With your guidance this can be done inshaAllah.

    When you explain these basic concepts in a language that is suitable for four and

    five year olds it can be done. You must make it fun, keep it light. Present as much

    of the curriculum as you can in stories or through art work and activities. Avoid

    lectures and direct instruction as much as possible. We have provided sample

    lesson plans to show how this can be done inshaAllah. For example, when you

    tell the stories of the wives of the Propeht keep the story interesting and makethem exciting. The children can remember three to four names of the wives of the

    Prophet and they will be able to retell, in their own words, why these women

    were great. You will guide them along and it will be a step by step process but

    we are confident that if children at this age can tell you everything about their

    favorite cartoon then they most certainly have the ability to tell you about their

    Lord, His Prophet and The Mothers of the Believers.

    We ask that Allah accept this work from us and place it on our scales of good

    deeds on the Day of Judgment and we ask that He make you successful as you

    mold and shape the Muslims of tomorrow. Ameen.

    Jazakum Allahu Khairan

    Islamic Studies Curriculum Framework

    Brief explanation of how the framework is organized

    The curriculum is organized into Grade Level Expectations (GLEs) and each

    expectation contains statements defining what students are expected to

    know and be able to do. The expectations are divided into five content

    strands: Tawheed (T), Aqeedah (A), Seerah (S), Fiqh (F), and History,

    Hadith and Biographies (H). Within each strand there may exist several

    sub-strands. In addition to the strands and their accompanying sub-strands,concrete examples are provided inshaAllah that will guide teachers through

    the process of incorporating GLEs into their curricular planning. The

    educator will also find that Blooms Taxonomy structure is interwoven into

    the framework ensuring that students are challenged at the various levels of

    learning whenever and as often as possible inshaAllah. Whenever

    appropriate, activities that incorporate the different levels of Blooms

    Taxonomy (i.e. knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and

    evaluation) are included. These activities are suggestions and teachers

    should modify the activities only to the extent that the Blooms structure is

    not significantly altered. The framework, in so far as its physical look is

    concerned, was adapted from various national school districts throughout

    the country. It is the hope that this familiar design will facilitate ease in

    comprehension and application of the material inshaAllah. We will now turn

    our attention to the structure and content of the Framework inshaAllah.

    Each expectation falls within one of the five content strands and also

    contains a grade level, expectation number and a sub-strand. An example

    follows:

    A:AW:00:01 would indicate:

    A Aqeedah

    strand.

    The framework was designed with students and teachers in mind inshaAllah.It is the hope that these expectations will provide teachers with the tools

    to plan exciting units that will enable our children to attain more than a

    topical understanding of Islam. It is hoped that units designed from this

    framework will give our students the tools needed to not only understand

    their religion but to also practice and live Islam according the Quran and

    Sunnah inshaAllah as the Sahaba understood them.

    The societies in which many of our students are raised are not based on the

    shariah of Allah aza wa jal and it is our duty to provided not only the piecesof the religion of Islam, we must give the students the glue and teach them

    how to put those pieces together and benefit from the whole of the religion

    inshaAllah. As a teacher you have the unique opportunity to mold the

    Muslims of tomorrow inshaAllah by what you teach them today. Make it

    count.
